Fireside Chat Winter Spiced Ale Brewed by 21st Amendment

The 21st
Amendment Brewery today announced the re-release of their holiday seasonal
beer in a can, Fireside Chat Winter Spiced Ale. Fireside Chat hearkens back
to the Golden Age of radio when the Great Depression held the country in a
pincer grip, and people longed for better times. President Franklin Delano
Roosevelt's fireside chats, which often began with the words, "Good evening,
friends," were hugely popular and his message was one of reassurance and
hope.

Fireside Chat is a subtle twist on the traditional seasonal brew. We begin with
a rich, dark ruby brown, English-style ale and then improvise with spices until
we know we have a beer worth sharing with the nation. During Halloween,
Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's, Fireside Chat will brighten the faces of
those who enjoy it, near the hearth or at the table. Its subtle blend of spices
balances the 7.9% alcohol by volume malty ale and will make this a foodie's
favorite, as it pairs perfectly with holiday meals.

"It's brewed to be a beer to share and to celebrate the warmth and aromas and
flavors of the season," says co-founder and Brewmaster Shaun O'Sullivan who
personally selects a special blend of spices for the beer each year, based on
the moment's inspiration.

"We have some amazing fans of this beer and last year we even won a gold medal
in one national holiday ale competition," co-founder Nico Freccia adds. "So
we're really excited about having this beer back again."

Fireside Chat's can and six-pack graphics feature FDR relaxing by the fire and
having a chat with an elf. The retro style is familiar and inviting and conjures
up Norman Rockwell images of American families gathering around a big boxy radio
or the fireplace (with a wry twist). We hope you enjoy this special video
Fireside Chat greeting this year from co-founders Freccia and O'Sullivan.

In the tradition of the holidays, Fireside Chat is available now through
December in cans and on draft at quality bars and stores in all 15 of 21st
Amendment's current distribution territories, including CA, OR, WA, AK, ID, MN,
OH, MA, NY, NJ, DC, MD, PA, VA, and GA. For up-to-date availability, events and

About 21st Amendment Brewery
Who the heck are these guys? Hey, we're Nico and Shaun. We live for great beer.
In 1920, there were thousands of breweries across America making unique
handcrafted beer. The passage of Prohibition wiped out this great culture. After
thirteen years without beer, the states ratified the 21st Amendment, ending
Prohibition in America. At the 21st Amendment Brewery, we celebrate the right to
brew beer, the freedom to be innovative, and the obligation to have fun.
